Abstract
Digital humanities research promotes the intersection between digital technologies and humanities, emphasizing free knowledge sharing and collaborative work. Based on the digital humanities features, this paper presents the architecture of a computational platform for collaborative historical research that is being designed and developed in an ongoing project called Pauliceia 2.0. This platform uses volunteered geographical information (VGI) and crowdsourcing concepts to produce historical geographic data and to allow historians to share historical data sets resulting from their researches.
